    摘要:

    波长2μm附近的激光位于大气传输窗口和水的强吸收峰,在医疗、激光雷达、材料加工以及中红外泵浦源等方面具有重要应用。掺铥光纤激光器(thulium-doped fiber laser, TDFL)是一种可在2μm波长获得高功率输出的重要光源。本文针对准连续(quasi-continuous wave, QCW)TDFL中的弛豫振荡和模间四波混频问题,通过增加偏置电流、优化增益光纤长度以及改变光纤盘绕直径等方案,优化了激光器的时域及频域输出特性,并探究了不同增益光纤结构对光纤传输模式的影响。研制的QCW-TDFL在脉宽100μs,重复频率1kHz,占空比为10%的情况下,在中心波长1939.2nm实现了峰值功率894W,平均功率89.4W的输出,并获得了稳定可控的脉冲输出波形和光谱特性。

    Abstract:

    Lasers near the wavelength of 2 μm are located in the atmospheric transmission window and the strong absorption peak of water, and have important applications in medicine, LIDAR, material processing, and as pump sources for mid-infrared lasers. The thulium-doped fiber laser (TDFL) stands out as a critical light source capable of delivering high power outputs at this wavelength. In this paper, to address the problems of relaxation oscillation and inter-modal four-wave mixing in quasi-continuous wave (QCW) TDFL, the time and frequency-domain output characteristics of the laser are optimized by increasing the bias current, optimizing the length of the gain fiber, and changing the diameter of the fiber coiling, etc. The effects of different gain fiber structures on the fiber transmission modes are also investigated. The developed QCW-TDFL achieves a peak power of 894 W and an average power of 89.4 W at a central wavelength of 1939.2 nm with a pulse width of 100 μs, a repetition frequency of 1 kHz and a duty cycle of 10%, and obtains stable and controllable pulse output waveforms and spectral characteristics.
